So, with a feature list as long as Mr Tickle's arms and an equally attractive price tag, can the Boss GT3 take charge of the mid‑priced guitar effects processor market? Walk All Over The Boss The latest offering from the Roland stable is the Boss GT3, a floor‑based guitar effects processor that offers many of the features of the older and more expensive GT5. Good news for guitarists then, but the high level of competition means manufacturers have to offer something really special if a product is to get some attention and become a commercial success. The stream of new products isn't showing much sign of slowing down, however, and while the feature sets on offer seem to keep getting fuller, prices also seem to be coming down. Indeed, given the level of competition between the leading manufacturers, some might wonder if the market isn't approaching saturation point. John Walden examines Boss's latest entrant in the crowded guitar effects processor race and considers whether its COSM‑based preamp might be just the thing to enhance his performance.įrom pocket‑money prices right through to the 'bank‑loan‑required' bracket, there is now tremendous choice in the guitar processor market and some fabulous value‑for‑money equipment at all price points.
